Sharing an experience with a loved one

[Arian]

My question deals with my mentally handicapped twined brother.
I was projecting one night and I stopped and asked a blonde mother with three little kids for directions. As I flew off (and as usual I'm always surprised that I can fly, and even more surprised that its completely normal in that world) when one of the kids said 'and he came home drunk again last night.' Now normally i wouldn't even have bothered because it had no importance to me, but i felt that whoever it was, really hit close to home, if anybody gets that. So I turned around and these weren't kids so much as faery's of some sort. The three of them had brown spiky hair, huge freckles, about three feet tall, and gave very grim looks at me when i looked at them, next thing you know I'm back in my body.  I couldn't quite figure out why i cared so much, so much that i drew a picture of them as soon as I snapped back. A couple of days later my mom had informed me my brother was hallucinating for the last year, and to be very careful around him because he was scared. She told me that he was getting the idea that the world was going to end, like donnie darko style.
So I asked him who was telling him the world was going to end, after many times reassuring him I wouldn't tell anyone, he confessed.
Almost screaming it he said 'these three kids wouldn't leave me alone at the baseball field.' I asked if anyone else was there. He said 'no.'I asked them what they had said to him and he said ' Ryan you better smartin up, the worlds gonna end, so f*** you and be quiet.' I was livid. Hellbent on finding whoever in the neighborhood told him that. So I ask him what they looked like and he described the three kids I saw in detail without me adding a word to suggest anything, just taking it in. I asked him to look at a picture and he nearly jumped out the chair. 'that's them' he said.
I reassured him that they were just lying as they had lied to me.'What they said to me didn't make any sense, so that doesn't either' I said.     He was happy to know that the world wasn't going to end and hallucination was not on the big list of mental problems he already had.  
My question is, has anyone ever heard of something like that happening and what does it mean. The only thing i can come up with is its a confirmation that there really is an invisible ethereal world coexisting simultaneously with the waking world and that these beings in it are real.
From what I've read and understand though is that its suppose to be different for everyone and that most of it, is your subconscious creating it on the ethereal plane, but how can me and my brother see the exact same being, faery,..etc.

Your post is Freaking Me Out.  The last time I projected (last week) I went "somewhere else" when I went through the wall, and the first thing I saw outside was a woman with three children.  One of them beckoned to me that they wanted to "go with me" I got scared of them and said something like 'I can't take you', giving some bogus reason and they tried to chase me as I flew away.  I was terrified and saw a lake and decided that 'they' don't like water and plunged in the water, then took off from underwater directly up at the greatest speed I could muster and ended up in my body, completely spooked.
btw,I live in Florida, US.

On another topic, my husband and I often share dreams, so although we "create" the places we visit, I think the 'collective unconscious' creates places that more than one consciousness can occupy.  And in the case of family, regardless of mental faculties, I believe the expectation of form can be more similar than of a stranger or even a friend.

Wow. That was really an amazing read. Very interesting.

Wow, reminds me of Dreamcatcher *Stephen King.

Good read, curious if anyone else has seen these kids?  Can you post your picture that you drew?
